She could actually be some studly dude.
Hot off the
wank_report presses:
Jenny Edwards, aka The Rejection Queen, is a "soon to be published author who is still getting rejection letters from literary agents". She runs a blog called Tales from a Rejection Queen, which consists of a laundry list of rejection letters for her writing dating back to 2008. Lest you think this might make for boring reading material, the letters are also interspersed with icons such as
"Careful, you might end up in my novel!" and
"How 'bout NO!".
Suddenly, the dam breaks.

"***So yesterday I was on the war path and reallllllly fuking pissed at some of these agents who rejected me without even giving me 30 seconds of consideration. Here are the the worst literary agents to date. # 1: Janet Reid is a bitch. Plain and simple. Don't even bother with her. I get a mental image of some old hag who thinks her shit don't stink. # 2-Nathan Brandsford thinks he's god's gift to the literary world.. # 3- Jillian Manus and her whole pathetic literary agency. # 4 - Curtis Brown and his nimrod agents oh and # 5--Writer's House Agents..."HEY AGENTS AT WRITER'S HOUSE! FUCK YOU. I HOPE ONE DAY I GET TO TELL YOU THAT TO YOUR FACE.
I have more, but I can't think of all of them right now. Just to pissed off to name anymore.
I can tell you one thing...Literary agents wouldn't know a good novel if it lit a fire up their ass. All these agents are looking for right now is trend. If you don't have the next lame ass vampire, paranomoral or science fiction book...you best start writing one or go find another job. "
The comments explode.
Meanwhile, at the Absolute Write cave: people begin to take notice.
Allegations are made that the published book RQ keeps claiming she authored -- the one that she insists is coming out in 2010 and was picked up by Grand Central -- is actually
Gunning Down Romance, printed by one
PublishAmerica.
Whole thread here, complete with boggling and J'ACCUSE:
I'm just stunned by the fact she can't spell the "f" word properly. The offending journal entry at RQ's blog is quickly deleted, and a new entry posted:
Ah, it's so interesting to see how many people have really nothing better to do with their lives. I must admit, I love stirring up shit.....but people go waaaay to extremes. I didn't read any of the comments posted on my last blog entry. The only reason I deleted it was because I don't need the drama. I don't really give a shit if my post is cached on google. I would have kept it up if I didn't get some 80 comments on it. Wow, that's a record for haters!!! Anyway, if anymore haters post comments on my blog...it will be deleted. That's all I got to say about that.
Yeah I've been "Xed" from publishing? Interesting.......I just got another request for a partial. Toodles!!!
Comments are deleted left and right as RQ insists that her publisher is totally legit, that she could actually be "some studly dude" and not the author of Gunning Down Romance at all, and that "lol. I am still revising my second novel. I'm about to send out the first three chapters to an agent right now."
